FATE BROKE HER HEART …
It’s been ten years since Lucy Carter Maxwell lost her soulmate. Having hidden from love ever since, she’s stunned to find it pulling at her when she discovers an old, forgotten box of Gabe’s photographs.
Desperate to find the hope she has been searching for, Lucy begins to unravel the secrets that Gabe left behind.
… CAN NEW LOVE SET HER FREE?
The journey leads Lucy to Italy and into the path of Dr. Dax Armstrong. The pain in his sad, intense eyes, matches Lucy’s own – his touch reignites her in a way that no one has since Gabe.
Afraid of these newly awakened parts of herself, Lucy can feel the comfort of her old life tugging at her. But with an earth-shattering secret waiting in the shadows, can Lucy ever embrace love, if she doesn’t embrace the truth?
A devastating love story about fate, and the enduring power of love. Perfect for fans of David Nicholls, Paige Toon and Claire Daverley.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Ten years after the heartbreaking events of bestseller Santopolo's The Light We Lost, Lucy Carter Maxwell gets a second chance at life and love in this tear-jerking romance. Lucy's passionate affair with late Associated Press photographer Gabriel Samson ended tragically with his death. Now she's wrestling with whether to come clean about the affair to their son, Samuel, whom Gabriel never knew and who believes he's the product of Lucy's now-ended first marriage. Working with the AP to prepare a retrospective of Gabriel's photography for the 10th anniversary of his death, Lucy is thrust back into painful but loving memories. Among his old photos, she finds a mysterious Italian address and impulsively heads to Rome, hoping for another connection to the man she loved. There, she meets handsome doctor Dax Armstrong, who reawakens something in her that she may or may not yet be ready to pursue. Santopolo's layered storytelling brings Lucy's internal conflict to life while offering the perfect blend of heartache and hope. Readers should have tissues at the ready.
